Daily Markets Briefing: STI down 1%

Expect a rebound today.  

According to OCBC, the rebound on Wall Street overnight should bring some much-needed relief to the local bourse this morning, especially after the STI’s 1% slide yesterday. OCBC also noted that the average value per unit has risen above S$1 as well.

Here's more from OCBC:

Still, the overall tone could remain cautious until the end of the US FOMC meeting (16-17 Sep); until then, we could see investors continuing to sell into strength, should the index fail to retake the initial key 2900 level.

But daily technical indicators suggest that it would be an uphill task to convincingly clear that hurdle in the near term.

Hence we still expect the index to ease further to 2800 region, breaking which, the next key support would be found only around 2600.

Above 2900, 3000 remains the main hurdle to clear.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
